SAE Type Fittings – Male, Straight for Air Conditioning and Refrigeration

Straight male SAE type fittings are specialized fasteners widely used in automotive air conditioning systems, commercial vehicles, and industrial refrigeration installations. The design of the fittings is based on a combination of a lightweight aluminum tube with a steel threaded sleeve, which guarantees optimal mechanical strength and resistance to refrigerants and compressor oils.

Precise SAE Cone Seal

A characteristic feature of these fittings is the SAE cone seal (45°), which, when the nut is correctly tightened, ensures perfect, long-term connection tightness – eliminating the risk of refrigerant leaks even under conditions of high operating pressures and continuous vibrations generated by the operation of the engine or compressor.

Application and Technical Properties

Straight SAE type fittings are perfect for both building new installations and for the professional repair or regeneration of air conditioning lines:

• Durable hybrid construction: The combination of an aluminum body and steel thread protects against seizing and thread damage.
• Compatibility with A/C hoses: Dedicated for crimping on flexible air conditioning hoses using standard crimping ferrules.
• Wide application: Passenger cars, delivery vans, trucks, agricultural and construction machinery, as well as stationary refrigeration systems and cold rooms.

Quick and Secure Installation

The straight fitting profile allows for direct and axial routing of the hose, which facilitates installation in areas with limited space. In our store, you will find male SAE fittings in a full range of thread sizes and hose diameters.
